I've tried 3 times to download the new CFS2 Birdcage Corsair just posted today, each time WinZip tells me it's not a valid archive, but doesn't give me any ideas why. Any ideas what the problem might be?

... I had to open my copy with 7Zip and re-archive the files inside to make it usable.

I have trouble too. My W7 says that it can't find the file after it is downloaded even though I'm right clicking on it and selecting the unzip function.

Jagdflieger - Don't know if I can answer that one, I use XPProSP3; however, I found using 7Zip is otherwise the answer to problems like this - I had problems with my downloaded zip file as well, with WinZip, but it opened fine with 7Zip and, once I was past the initial opening, I was able to install per normal methods. I'm planning on keeping the 7Zip on my desktop as an alternate method if these things fail to otherwise open properly in WinZip.
